- ALAmy LimesJan 4, 20261.0Empty shelves for the second time in 2 weeks. No fresh food, no fruit, no healthy options, slow EVgo charge, took over 30+ minutes to charge to 80% (and there were no other cars charging) We have utilized this stop weekly for sports travel, but every convenience has now been stripped away. We will be utilizing other charging stations moving forward. Good bye Flying J
- ALAmy LimesJan 4, 20261.0We travel a lot for sports and come here weekly to charge our car. This is the second time theyve had no fresh fruit sandwiches or wraps. No I uncrustables, guac, or eggs. Their ENTIRE cold storage serving section is empty! It's like they are decided not to bother. Only packaged processed food. We will be using another charging station in the future. Also their charging station EVgo has slowed significantly since we got our car in April 2025. What use to be a 20 minute stop to 80% is now a 40+ minute stop.... We don't have that kind of time to sit. Again we are now venturing out to utilize other charging stations. This use to be a staple but now I unfortunately everything convenient bout the Flying J is non existent, will not be coming here again.
